# Service Announcements

Service Announcements shows the M365 Message Center announcements for your tenant directly inside IntuneAssistant — the same messages you'd see in the Microsoft 365 admin center, filterable by service, severity, category, and tag.

{% hint style="info" %}
Browsing Service Announcements is **free** for any active IntuneAssistant subscription — no module purchase or installed Worker required. Getting a scheduled **email digest** of new or updated announcements requires the **Reporting** module and an installed Worker; see [Getting notified by email](#getting-notified-by-email) below.
{% endhint %}

## Viewing announcements

1. Sign in to the **IntuneAssistant portal** at [portal.intuneassistant.cloud](https://portal.intuneassistant.cloud/)
2. In the left navigation, click **Tenant Events**
3. Select **Service Announcements**

You'll see a table of all current Message Center announcements for your tenant, including:

* **Title** — with a **Major** badge for changes Microsoft flags as significant
* **Category** — Prevent or fix issue, Plan for change, or Stay informed
* **Severity** — Normal, High, or Critical
* **Services** — which Microsoft 365 services the announcement affects
* **Tags** — e.g. Admin impact, User impact, Retirement
* **Rollout** — for messages tracking a staged feature rollout, where it currently stands for your tenant (see [Tenant rollout status](#tenant-rollout-status) below)
* **Last Updated** — when Microsoft last modified the announcement

Click any row to open the full message, including the complete announcement text as published by Microsoft. Up to 1,000 matching messages are loaded at once; if your tenant has more than that, narrow your filters to see the rest.

## Filtering

Use the **Filters** panel to narrow the list:

| Filter                 | Description                                                                                        |
| ---------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Service**            | Show only announcements affecting a specific service (e.g. `Microsoft Entra`)                      |
| **Severity**           | Normal, High, or Critical                                                                          |
| **Category**           | Prevent or fix issue, Plan for change, or Stay informed                                            |
| **Tag**                | Free-text tag match, e.g. `Admin impact`                                                           |
| **Rollout status**     | Scheduled, In Rollout, or Launched (see below) — only matches messages that track a staged rollout |
| **Only major changes** | Show only announcements Microsoft has flagged as a major change                                    |

Filters apply immediately and can be combined. Use **Clear filters** to reset.

## Tenant rollout status

Some announcements — typically ones tied to a Microsoft 365 Roadmap feature — track exactly where the rollout stands for **your** tenant specifically, not just when Microsoft announced it generally:

* **Scheduled** — the feature is planned but hasn't started rolling out to your tenant yet
* **In Rollout** — actively rolling out, often shown with a release ring (e.g. Standard Release)
* **Launched** — fully rolled out to your tenant

Open a message with a **Rollout** badge to see the breakdown per platform (e.g. iOS, Android, All) — a feature can be further along on one platform than another. Messages with no rollout badge don't track a staged rollout; the vast majority of Message Center posts fall into this category.

## Getting notified by email

Browsing shows you what's happening right now, but you can also get proactively notified as new or updated announcements come in — configure a **Service Announcement Digest** job under **Worker → Job Management**. This requires the **Reporting** module. See [Manage Jobs](/extensions/worker/manage-jobs.md) for setup instructions.

## Requirements

**To browse:**

* An active IntuneAssistant subscription (no additional module required)
* The signed-in user must have consented to the `ServiceMessage.Read.All` Graph permission (you'll be prompted automatically the first time you open this page if it's missing)

**To receive the email digest:**

* The **Reporting** module
* An installed and approved Worker

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.intuneassistant.cloud/intune-assistant/audits/service-announcements.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
